Default WR - Adam exclusion could be perceived as racist...
BB said that the 4 who received the least noms for eviction were eligible to go into the White Room. They could have said choose the 3 from the whole 5 who were not up for eviction - but Adam alone gets left out in the cold - why? He was the one left adrift between the ones who got the least noms and the ones who got the most.
Why was he alone excluded from a chance to enter the White Room? This could be perceived as racist. I wonder what Adam will make of that when it is revealed that someone in the WR waltz's off with 50K and he was left out deliberately?

The whole whiteroom idea was a total washout,boring and pointless,it would be great for Adam to win off his own merit and not from a shove up from BB,he'de probably prefer that anyway.To be voted the winner by the public must be much more rewarding.

Is that a normal expression in the UK?

I find the term "PC Brigade" is used mostly by people defending casual racism. If being a member of the "PC Brigade" refers to people who are against racists, then I am happy to be a member of it and not use a patronising, insensitive term like 'coloured' to describe someone.

Coincidence. As coolface said, allegations like this trivialises real racism.

Okay, I take all your points on board, and I see that this thread could be seen as trivializing racism.
I thought it was an interesting point because I felt bad for Adam being left out for no discernible reason and I would love to know why he WAS left out.
Sorry if I have offended anyone!
